This line performs well in stillwater conditions. The floating action is smooth and the dry tip stays stable. I’ve used it with both nymphs and streamers and it casts easily over long distances. The AST+ additive makes a noticeable difference in how it moves through the air.

Great for surface fishing with indicators. The extra weight helps with longer casts and keeps the line from sagging. It’s durable and doesn’t fray easily. A solid choice for trout lakes.

I’ve switched from a standard float line to this model and noticed a clear improvement in casting accuracy. The improved dry tip keeps the line from dipping too much, and the slickness additive reduces tangles.
